Professional ethics and educational technology: An approach from a university of metropolitan lima

The integration of professional ethics and educational technology in the university environment presents significant challenges and opportunities. Rapid technological evolution raises ethical questions about the proper use of digital tools in the educational process, while the lack of clear policies and the need for training in this area may hinder their effective implementation. The objective of this research work is to explore the perceptions and opinions of university students and professors on the integration of professional ethics and educational technology in the university context of Metropolitan Lima. The research was carried out through surveys and semi-structured interviews conducted with a sample of 253 students and 192 university professors from different disciplines. Data were collected on the perception of the impact of educational technology on ethical training, the efficiency of ethical teaching practices, the perception of the university community, and the challenges and opportunities in the ethical integration of educational technology. The results show that both students and teachers recognize the importance of integrating professional ethics in university education and perceive the positive impact of educational technology on the ethical training of students. However, they also identify significant challenges, such as the lack of clear policies and the need for more resources and training in this area. In conclusion, the findings of this study underscore the importance of promoting ethically and technologically responsible education in the university environment.
